The Memcached plugin implements cache interface for memcached. See: http://memcached.org/ The difference between the former `MemcachePlugin` and `MemcachedPlugin` is that they use, respectively, `memcache` and `memcached` as the underlying php libraries. These are similar libraries, made by different authors with slightly different cacpabilities, therefore `memcached` was selected. Installation ============ Tell your `config.php` to use this plugin (replace `tcp://localhost:6379` with the address/port of your Memcache backend server): `addPlugin('Memcached');` Note that this typically requires configuring the `memcached` extension for `php`, which is typically available as a binary package from your system's package manager. In Debian based systems and on Arch based systems, this is likely available under the `php-memcached` package. Note the final `d`. On Arch, uncomment the line in `/etc/php/conf.d/memcached.ini` and restart your webserver and/or php-fpm or similar. Settings ======== servers: Array of memcached servers addresses. Each server address should be either a string with address or an array where the first element is a string with the address an optional second element with the port. defaultExpiry: How long before cache expires (in seconds) Example ======= addPlugin('Memcached', [ 'servers' => ['127.0.0.1', 11211], 'defaultExpiry' => 86400 // 24h ]);
